LIFE IS A PROBLEM OR LIFE IS HAPPINESS, EACH ONE WILL HAVE HIS/HER VERSION BUT MANY WILL SAY IT IS DESTINY OF PAST KARMA AND THEY HAVE TO BEAR WITH IT. BUT IN REALLY SAYING AND ACCEPTING THE REALITY ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS. SOME WILL CALL IT A DESTINY, SOME WILL CURSE THEIR BIRTH BEING BORN IN WORST CONDITIONS IN POOR PARENTS, SOME WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT EXPLOITATION, SOME WILL SHELTER THEMSELVES IN WEAK HEALTH, MISERIES, FAMILY PROBLEMS, CONSEQUENCES OF HAPPENINGS FROM OUTSIDE ETC. ETC. WHILE ALSO THERE ARE FEW WHO HAVE IMMENSE WEALTH AND MEANS AND DO NOT KNOW HOW TO SPEND THESE BUT STILL SUCH PERSONS ALSO ALL THE TIME REMAIN BUSY IN AMASSING MORE MONEY AND FIGHT AGAINST COMPETITIONS, TO ATTAIN PROMINENCE ETC. STILL WE FIND SOME WHO REMAIN CONTENTED WITH WHAT THEY HAVE BUT DO STRUGGLE TO BETTER THEIR LOT. I WILL SAY THEY REALLY LIVE THEIR LIFE COMFORTABLY CONTENTED NOT NECESSARILY HAPPILY. BESIDES MEANS AND RESOURCES, HAPPINESS IS AN ATTITUDE, ONE WHO HAS NOT ENOUGH BUT FEELS CONTENTED WITH THAT LITTLE, MANAGES TO REMAIN COMPARTIVELY HAPPY. I THINK HAPPINESS PRIMARILY DEPENDS ON ONE'S FAMILY LIFE AND IF ONE IS HAPPY IN HOUSE, HE/SHE WILL BE HAPPY AND PROGRESSIVE OUTSIDE AND ALL THROUGH. MONEY HAS A MEANING AND IS ESSENTIAL TO LIVE, BUT THE MORE THE MONEY, MORE ARE THE PROBLEMS. HENCE TO SHUN GREED HELPS IN LIVING LIFE HAPPILY. ESSENTIAL TO REMEMBER THAT LIFE IS TO LIVE, THE HAPPIER WE ARE, THE BEST WE LIVE OUR LIFE NOT ONLY FOR OURSELVES, BUT FOR THE FAMILY, ALL THOSE AROUND AND FOR THE SOCIETY AT LARGE. IN SHORT HAPPINESS MUST REMAIN THE GOAL AND ANYTHING WHICH AFFECTS HAPPINESS, MUST BE AVOIDED AND IF NOT, SOLUTION MUST BE FOUND TO GET OVER THE SITUATION AND BE HAPPY, AND IF ONE IS HAPPY, ONE HAS EVERYTHING AND IF ONE IS NOT HAPPY, I THINK, HE OR SHEE HAS LOST ALL CHARM AND BEAUTY OF LIFE.
